Summary 03055: Verbose mode should state where MAME looks for files
Description To the wish list:

The verbose mode should state where MAME looked for files,
  particularly files that are not found.
  For example, this is useful when a ROM image is not found
  but I know it exists and I thought I configured the path correctly.

Should probably be considered. It is helpful for locating bugs in your mame.ini.

May as well indicate where it looks for ini files as well.
I never knew it looks for vector.ini, <name-of-driver>.ini, <name-of-parent>.ini as well as the game name, until i was trying track down a bug one day, and found this stuff in the source.
